Chapter 75 It's the other way around. I'm the one playing ball with her. With a unified pace, the three of them worked together to arrange the blackboard newspaper very quickly. Before the last physical education class that afternoon, Du Peipei, who was responsible for the art design, brought the blackboard newspaper sketch that combined Wang Yushan's block design to Fang Wei. Except for the last physical education class, the whole day today is full of regular classes. It is easy to imagine that Du Peipei and Wang Yushan must have taken up some class time to do these things. I just don't know what Teacher Wen will feel when he finds out... "not bad!" "Because it's a rough sketch, I didn't draw it in great detail, but it looks roughly like this." "Okay, when we make the blackboard newspaper, we can just draw it according to this." "Captain, when do we start construction?" "Well." Fang Wei thought about it and decided that it was definitely not possible to do it during class time. The breaks were too sporadic and the classrooms also had to take a nap at noon, so he could only do it in the afternoon after school.
"Will it delay you if I do it after school?" "It's okay, I live nearby." Du Peipei said. Her family lives in Baitan Island Town, and she usually goes home for lunch after school. "I can do that too, since I live in the dormitory anyway." Wang Yushan said. Her family lives in Nanpu Island, and because it is quite far away, she lives in the dormitory and eats with her roommates. "Okay, then let's do it after school and try to finish it before the Mid-Autumn Festival." Fang Weiwei naturally didn't mind wasting this little time. He looked at Cai Ling, A Sheng, and Zhi Yi, who were ready to take their schoolbags and leave after the physical education class. He said, "Then you three should go back first after school. I'll leave later, so you don't have to wait for me." "Let's go together! It won't take long anyway. We came here by bike, so we don't have to catch the bus or the ferry." As Xu Cailing said this, she ran back to her seat with her schoolbag and stuffed it into the drawer. Seeing this, Liu Zhiyi and Asheng also stuffed their packed schoolbags into the drawer. Fang Wei was both touched and helpless. His friends' intentions were pure and cute. They agreed to go home together and would never leave him alone. "I, I'm going to treat you guys to popsicles today." Liu Zhiyi said. "That's right! Today it's Zhiyi's turn to treat us!" "Okay, then let's go together and go to physical education class first!" …… It's time for physical education class. Xu Cailing looked happy and relaxed, while Liu Zhiyi looked depressed and heavy. This is a scene that is repeated in almost every physical education class. We just learned the radio gymnastics last week, and except for Xu Cailing, most of the students in the class did it very poorly. Niu Wengang naturally wouldn't be polite to them. He asked Cai Ling to take everyone to run two laps in the playground and then come back to continue practicing radio gymnastics. Compared to the first time when I had to run six laps, running two laps now is a lot easier.
Xu Cailing was very brave and asked Niu Wengang first: "Teacher Niu, how many more classes of radio exercises do we have to learn?" The girls’ novelty for radio gymnastics has long passed, and they are eagerly looking forward to doing something new in physical education class, such as teaching them to play basketball, table tennis, badminton, practicing high jump and long jump, and running races. If all else fails, free activities will also be fine! If other students asked the same question, they would definitely be criticized by Teacher Niu. Teacher Niu took a look and found that it was Cai Ling, his sports committee member and the one who did the best and most standard gymnastics, who asked... So he swallowed the criticism he was about to say and said in a deep voice: "Practice until you all learn it!" "So, from now on, we will do the radio exercises first in every class. Students who do well can go out for free activities, such as playing ball or track and field, but they cannot go back to the classroom without permission. Students who do not do well will continue to practice!" "...!!" Doing exercises by yourself is uncomfortable, but your friend’s freedom is even more worrying! Teacher Niu grasped the psychology of the young boys and girls very well. Once this strategy with clear rewards came out, everyone became very alert. "Let's start the first round now. Students who do well can move freely!" "understood--" "Ready, go - 1234, 5678..." Most of the students in the class were doing the exercises in a mess, and Teacher Niu knew it. Even though everyone was alert now, he would not let go easily if their movements were not standard or skillful. So when the final test results came out, only Fang Wei and Xu Cailing met his standards. "You two can go and do whatever you want. There are basketballs and other sports equipment in the gym. Go get them, but remember to return them after class." "I understand, teacher!" Xu Cailing was so excited that she almost jumped up. She called Fang Wei, and the two of them ran to the gym to get the ball. There were forty students left in the class, including Liu Zhiyi and A Sheng. They all watched Fang Wei and Xu Cailing playing ball happily, feeling envious and jealous! "Stop looking and start practicing. Whoever practices first will get to move first!" "1234, 5678..." …… "Hahaha, Teacher Niu is so nice! I didn't expect we could move around freely!" "…If you make this comment publicly, you will probably receive eight positive votes against it." From an objective point of view, Fang Wei knew that Cai Ling was right. Teacher Niu was actually a nice person. Apart from being a little strict when teaching exercises, he was a very responsible teacher. Even though he looked scary, he had never physically punished or deliberately made things difficult for students. Now I am standing on the playground playing basketball freely, looking up at my classmates who are still practicing gymnastics under the shade of trees. You know what, this feeling is quite wonderful. As expected, happiness comes from comparison... This was Xu Cailing’s first time playing basketball. She didn’t understand the rules, nor did she know what the two-point line and the three-point line were. She just shot the ball randomly. "Fang Wei, let's see who can throw the ball more accurately!" "Come on."
The girl was holding a basketball. She had a slim figure, and the sight of her holding the huge basketball in her arms looked a bit funny. She stood under the basket, pushed the ball in her arms with both hands, and it went in with a swish. "I scored a point!" “…It’s called a two-point shot.” "Oh, two points then." "You're standing so close, who can't hit the target?" "You can stand this close." Fang Wei picked up the ball and stood where she was, which was closer than the free throw line. Unlike the shot in Xu Cailing's arms, his movements were much more standard. Fang Wei raised the basketball in his hand in front of his forehead, aimed at the angle, and then shot! bang bang... The unromantic basketball bounced twice on the iron hoop and then fell to the floor with a clatter. "vegetable!!" "..." "I think you look pretty good!!" "..." "That's it?" "...Don't make noise, I haven't warmed up yet, my hands are new to it!" Fang Wei felt a little embarrassed and ran over to pick up the ball, but Xu Cailing was more agile than him. She rushed past him, picked up the ball and held it in her arms. "But your movements and postures just now were quite handsome. How did you do that?" This girl! She is really good at giving a sweet reward after a beating! Well, Fang Wei admitted that the compliments to her were indeed helpful. "That's the standard shooting posture. First, you stand with your feet and shoulders wide, lower your center of gravity, then stabilize the ball with your left hand, open your right hand and control the ball with your fingertips, and use your wrist to exert force..." "so?" "You raised your hand too high, lower it a little..." Xu Cailing held the ball and Fang Wei came over to help her pose. In this half of the court, only he and Cailing were playing basketball, or rather, Xu Cailing was the only girl in the entire court. Naturally, it will also attract the attention of students from other classes. The intimacy between the two may be too normal for each other, but to other people on the court, it seems a little ambiguous. What a young and lovely girl! She actually plays ball with this guy?!
I don't know what to say except envy... If Fang Wei could hear what was in her heart, he would probably retort, 'That's wrong, I was the one playing basketball with her'. He actually wasn't very interested in basketball, but he couldn't resist Xu Cailing's enthusiasm. Soon, Xu Cailing assumed the standard shooting posture. "Is this really how you cast? It feels so awkward!" "Just throw it. It's definitely better than throwing it randomly." Then Xu Cailing took the shot. As a result, this time it didn't even hit the basket, but just flew past the tattered net under the basket. “It doesn’t work at all!” "..." Xu Cailing didn't believe him. She picked up the ball and continued to shoot with her arms. Her hit rate was indeed much higher than when she used the standard posture. In fact, this is normal. After all, the standard posture requires a lot of wrist strength. It is very difficult for girls who have not grown up yet, including Fang Wei, to shoot in this way. The two of them played basketball without any rules, they just played randomly. When Xu Cailing saw others dribbling the ball, she followed suit. Xu Cailing's athletic talent is reflected in all aspects. At the beginning, when she hit the basketball, the basketball and her hands made a snapping sound. No one taught her. After she did this for a few times, the basketball gradually "stuck" to her hands obediently, and she could even dribble the ball while running slowly. Fang Wei’s shooting accuracy is terrible, but his dribbling is still okay, at least much better than her as a rookie. "How do you dribble?" "What are you talking about! You are allowed to know it, but I am not allowed to know it?" "So, can you dribble between your legs?" "...I had a stiff neck last night. I'll show you next time." "boast!" "I passed the ball to you, catch it!" Fang Wei cunningly changed the subject and threw the ball in her direction. The girl didn't react and didn't catch it, so she ran over to pick up the ball. "I passed it to you too, catch it!" "…Are you trying to kill me?!" "Hahaha……" Xu Cailing giggled with joy. The soft light of the setting sun fell on her pretty face, her cute short ponytail swayed back and forth. When she smiled, sweet dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth, and her big eyes narrowed into crescents. It is the most beautiful scenery on this shabby concrete basketball court. ……
The rest of the class did a whole class of radio gymnastics; Xu Cailing and Fang Wei played double basketball for a whole class. When the group was dismissed, no one else was sweating except Xu Cailing and Fang Wei, who were sweating profusely. It looked like everyone was moving around freely while they were training hard. "Zhiyi, are you okay? Why do you look like you're about to faint?" "..." Liu Zhiyi was speechless and just wanted to find a place to sit down and recharge. After going upstairs and returning to the classroom, he sat down in his corner seat. He felt the power consumption slowly increase, and Liu Zhiyi finally breathed a sigh of relief... Looking back, I saw Fang Wei, Wang Yushan and Du Peipei starting to arrange the blackboard newspaper at the back of the classroom. Cailing and Asheng also joined in the fun. In the classroom that was bustling during the day, there were only six of them left, along with two students on duty today. After the students on duty finished cleaning and left, there were only six of them left in the classroom. It’s quiet, a good opportunity to study secretly! Liu Zhiyi took out her little vocabulary notebook, hesitated for a while, and finally put it away. She turned around, faced the back of the classroom, supported her chin with her little hands, and watched them arrange the blackboard newspaper. When she was in elementary school, her class also had blackboard newspapers, but she never cared who drew them or when they were drawn. She didn't seem to have the memory of seeing the process of drawing the blackboard newspaper. But this time, she saw it. Fang Wei was standing on tiptoe, writing the title in the middle, while Ah Sheng stood behind him, telling him whether the position of the title was correct. Wang Yushan is collecting information and bits of knowledge to fill in the column; Du Peipei was drawing on the blackboard, while Cailing sat on a classmate's desk, her legs dangling in the air, holding a bunch of chalks of various colors. She would hand Peipei whatever color she needed. Everyone was busy and bustling, and patterns and words gradually appeared on the blank blackboard; This feeling of creating something from nothing is very wonderful, and Liu Zhiyi stared at it in a daze. She wondered if she should go up and help... But it seems like there is no need for help... "Knowledge!" "……Um?" The sudden shout interrupted her daze. Fang Wei said to her, "Give me your composition and I'll copy it." "..." Please God! I didn't mean to help! After a while, Liu Zhiyi shyly took out her composition book from her schoolbag and walked over to give it to Fang Wei. Fang Wei dusted the chalk dust off his hands and took the composition book from her. "How about you write it yourself? I think it will be more meaningful if you write it!" “You, you write it.”
Liu Zhiyi didn't even turn his head. After handing him the composition book, he quickly slipped back to his seat. Considering that the composition has 600 words and other space needs to be reserved on the page, Fang Wei decided to just quote some paragraphs from Liu Zhiyi's composition, which he thought were very well written. This was the first time that her composition was copied onto the blackboard by her deskmate. I have to say that Fang Wei's blackboard writing is really good, and the paragraphs he excerpted are also the ones she is most satisfied with. "Zhiyi, your composition is well written!" "..." Not only Xu Cailing, but even Wang Yushan, who served as the Chinese class representative and student committee member, was convinced by the two + scores given by Teacher Wen when she saw her composition. Originally Liu Zhiyi was looking at the blackboard newspaper with great interest, but now he felt too embarrassed to look at it anymore. He turned around and started memorizing his vocabulary book... …… When you concentrate on doing something, it is easy to forget about time. Before I knew it, it was already half past five and almost forty minutes had passed since school was over. It was Wen Susu, who had just returned from the cafeteria and passed by the classroom, who reminded them. “You guys drew so much so quickly?!” Wen Susu was stunned. Is this the efficiency of young people? She had just assigned the task in the morning, but in the afternoon they started tinkering with it on the blackboard. Looking at the progress, it can't even be called a prototype, it's almost half done! "What do you think, Mr. Wen? This is our draft." Fang Wei showed her the draft designed by Wang Yushan and painted by Du Peipei. "Okay, okay! It's much better than I thought! You did a great job! Kudos!" Cai Ling and A Sheng on the side started clapping, making Du Peipei and Wang Yushan feel embarrassed. "That was all Fang Wei's idea. We didn't know how to do it either, so we asked him and found out how to do it." "I dare not take credit for it!" Wen Susu looked at the group of young boys and girls with a smile. She knew that they could cooperate so well, which was definitely inseparable from Fang Wei's organization and coordination. "Okay, let's stop here for today. Don't be in a hurry. Slow work makes fine work. It's already half past five. You should go home and have dinner." "Then we'll paint tomorrow." After Fang Wei said this, the friends stopped what they were doing. "Go back quickly, go back quickly, I'll close the door." Wen Susu urged. "goodbye teacher." "Be safe on the road."
…… The six of them went downstairs together. After Wang Yushan checked in, she went straight back to the dormitory and asked her roommate to help her get some food. Du Peipei's home is near the school. She usually walks to school. After waving to Fang Wei and the other three, she walks out of the school gate, turns a corner and arrives home. The remaining four people went cycling. At this point, all the bicycles parked on the wall were empty, leaving only the four of them parked next to each other. There is still an hour before the sun sets, but now it is gradually beginning to feel like dusk. "Go, go home!" "I'm so late today, I wonder if my dad and the others will scold me." A Sheng said worriedly. "Of course! But as long as you say you were drawing a blackboard newspaper with Fang Wei, everything will be fine." Cai Ling is quite experienced. "...You're using me as a shield for everything, right?" Fang Wei rolled his eyes. "I was waiting for you to draw the blackboard newspaper." Seeing Liu Zhiyi remained silent, looking anxiously towards the school gate, pushing his bicycle with a thoughtful look, Xu Cailing asked curiously: "What's wrong, Zhiyi? Are you afraid of being scolded by Uncle Liu if you go back late?" "no……" "So what are you worried about?" "Um, when does the old man who sells popsicles on his bicycle usually finish selling?" "Eh?" "It's my turn to treat you to popsicles today." So that’s what happened! "Don't worry, Boss Liu. That old man won't be able to get far!" The three of them happily surrounded her and went to buy popsicles together. (End of this chapter)
